Several sections of Chattanooga freeways will be completely closed Thursday night and early Friday for median repairs.

TDOT Operations crews will be performing an emergency repair of a damaged median barrier wall on I-24 East at mile marker 178 on Thursday from 8 p.m. to Friday at 6 a.m.

I-24 East will be completely closed at the high bridge at mile marker 178 beginning at 9 p.m.

In addition to I-24 East, the right lane of U.S 27 South and the exit to Lookout Mountain from U.S. 27 South will also be closed during this work.
